There are actually TWO known audience recordings of this show. Until recently, most Sabbath collectors (myself included) believed that the various versions of this tape were different generations of the same source. After comparing two different versions a bit more carefully, Lars Bernstroem determined that these were in fact completely different sources. Source #1 contains a good bit of talking near the recording, none of which can be heard on the second source! |

| Comment | The correct date / venue for the show usually labelled as 1970-10-30 Glassboro. See the entry from sabbathlive -
After much debate and research, I have decided to rule out Glassboro, NJ (or Philadelphia) 10/30/70 as a possible source for these tapes. They have long been traded with this date and the claim that these recordings were from Sabbath’s 1st U.S. show. In fact, these tapes are from the tail end of Sabbath’s 2nd American tour for PARANOID. They opened for Mountain and Humble Pie at The Spectrum in Philadelphia on April 2nd, 1971 at a show billed as the “Mountain Dance Concertâ€. This explains the shortened set list as well. |
